Dear members of the Dutch organic chemistry community (and related),

It is our great pleasure to (pre-)announce the KNCV SOC-MCCB Symposium which will take place on 24-25 March 2025 in De Werelt in Lunteren.

Like two years ago, the symposium is organized jointly by sections Organic Chemistry (SOC) and Medicinal Chemistry & Chemical Biology (MCCB), and the program will include speakers that are relevant for both sections. As in previous editions, there will be slots for oral and poster presentations – an opportunity for PhD students, postdocs and young PIs to present their work. Confirmed speakers:

• John Overington, Exscientia, US
• Ilan Marek, Technion, Israel
• Uwe Grether, Roche, Switzerland
• Jan van Maarseveen, UVA
• Marc Baggelaar, UU
• Ilja Voets, TUE

When the program is complete, you will receive a second announcement with the registration information. In the meanwhile, mark your calendars and feel free to check the website of the KNCV Organic Chemistry Division (https://soc.kncv.nl/soc-mccb-2025/) for updates on the event.

We look forward to meeting many of you in Lunteren next March!

Best regards,

The board of the KNCV section Organic Chemistry,
Eelco Ruijter, Chair
Fedor Miloserdov, Secretary
